Well, this morning dawns cooler than in some time, in he high 50′s. For several weeks the temps have ranges from 90 to 106, which is pretty hot for the Willamette Valley. So, much like the poor folks in Tejas, suffering from an extended heat wave, the assessment of global cooling only seems viable long about December. Yet, some say the cooling has been progressing amidst the hysteria of global warming-climate change.
“NASA satellites first began measuring global temperatures in 1979. The readings are precise and not influenced by local land use changes and urban growth that corrupt data from ground-based temperature stations.”
“Instead of behaving according to the alarmists’ feedback hypothesis, global temperatures have continued to follow closely fluctuations in solar output and ocean circulation cycles, not carbon dioxide trends.”
GREENMAIL: Strong Arm Tactics by Union thugs & Democrats: Concerned Unions for Reliable Energy. East Coast Union tactics seem quite alive and well in California.
I just got into a real knock-down donnybrook with some flunkers over at a site called Balloon Juice over this very issue.
Wish I’d seen this, though I think it is now common knowledge that the alarmist-soros funded sites that churn out the terror now ruefully admit that cooling has been the order of the day since about 1998.
Only, they claim this is but a temporary blip to the overall larger warming trend.
